Great stay, nice room, hotel had just undergone remover at least that’s how it look so everything was up to par. Parking was nice and secure in a garage that can only be opened with keys which helped safety. My only wish was that the bathroom was bigger but for everything else to be great I also can’t complain

Renovation issues

The hotel is very nice and undergoing renovations. Our room apparently had a water leak and we were told to not shower (10:30pm) and wait until further notice which didn’t happen until 11:30pm where we were asked to move rooms. While the service was good the inconvenience was bad.

I was in town with my adult daughter and her newborn son. When I arrived to check in, I was told that the elevator was out of order and the lowest guest room was on the 3rd floor. Not great news for a grandma with bad knees and plenty of baby items to carry up a very sketchy, cold, halfway outdoor stairwell. The streets of the hotel were surrounded by homeless in broken down vehicles and people standing right next to the security gate. Had I known about the renovations and the elevator when I booked, I would not have stayed here.

This hotel is under remodeling construction (in February 2025). The elevators were not in service. The room could have been better vacuumed. Bathroom was clean. Had to walk to the main desk and ask for an extra blanket and how to get the TV to work. It did work with a few fuzzy channels. Breakfast was nice. Staff were helpful and pleasant. They called us 2 days before our arrival to ask if we wanted to cancel because of no elevator, but there were not other places available on such short notice. It worked out fine for us because we were on the 3rd floor, able to navigate the stairs and laugh about the circumstance we were in.

Just not good

The breakfast and free parking were good. The rest was awful. No elevator and the places you walked through to get to the rooms were places no guest should ever know existed. Mattresses and old furniture stacked to the ceiling, coffee cups littered everywhere. Stairwells full of garbage and discarded ironing boards and luggage racks in a heap. Stairs were half outside and 6 flights of stairs to get to the lobby was exhausting. Not appealing and nothing as advertised. Except breakfast, breakfast was great. Rooms were mediocre with many issues in upkeep.
